I enjoyed this challenge last year and Hot Listens and The Book Nympho are hosting it again. Go on over there to check the full details out. It is very well run - gotta love that about a challenge.
The challenge is to outdo yourself from the previous year, and as I made it up to 20 last year I am going up to the next level.

I love all the in Death series so this one really stands for them all. I read many of them, because I have them in paperback, but any I don't have I listen to and I love them.
Good luck with your challenge!
ReplyDeleteI am also joining this challenge - 50+ is my goal for 2015.
ReplyDeleteI joined this one on the goodreads group option
ReplyDeleteGreat. I keep meaning to check out the Goodreads group but I am getting a little befuddled, methinks I took on too many challenges, but so far head above water!
DeleteWritten in Red!! So good.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree, fell head over heels in love!
DeleteRight of the get go, I loved your first two books :) Dark Witch didn't work for me :( But Ten Tiny Breath sure did! My introduction to K. A. Tucker. I'll stop because this will get too long...lol I loved a lot of the books on your list, I have to check out the ones I haven listen to yet.
ReplyDeleteGreat job!!
Thanks Loupe. I loved One Plus One and the K. A. Tucker was another great revelation!
DeleteI think we are at the same place with the same goals. I have many of these are on my TBR list as well. Great job!!!
ReplyDeleteGood job! Keep up the listening.
ReplyDeleteI loved The Others series by Anne Bishop and The Martian by Andy Weir too. Great job with your goals and getting extra walking in too. Two for the price of one. :-) Keep listening.
